The same in any case is being smuggled in Pakistan. In Quetta, in open market, it is available at Rs 20 per litre. Reportedly, many pumps on the highway too, use the smuggled oil but sell it on market rates. Why not regularise this & give benefit to the consumers?This one step alone can go a long way in beating inflation.<BR/>Electricity too,by the FM was offered at dirt cheap rates.We can import the same from Iran. And/or lay a pipeline from there.<BR/>It's time, we stood up for our own interests.<BR/>YAAYASMEEN ALIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10748945833762147296noreply@blogger.com
